Class Description

The Caesar's shift, Alberti's disk, Cherokee Code Talkers and the Enigma Machine...
As far back as 1900 BC Ciphers have been used to protect critical information. Our ability to encrypt and decrypt ("break") these codes has changed the course of history. In this puzzling class Launch programmers use Python to disguise and reveal secret messages using famous ciphers. Students will learn various methods of hiding message in Python using strings, lists, conditional statements and custom functions. From shifting the alphabet so that A becomes B to numerical-based methods, unlock a new coding experience with Launch!

**Previous experience coding with Scratch or similar highly recommended**

Instructor's reviews

My daughter actually switched to the other section of this class... 3rd-5th Grade, so I don't want to give this teacher a bad review but she had started in this section (K-2), so that's the review I was sent.

Overall, I found this class to be very disappointing. It was listed as a class taught by a Disney Princess and the class ended up having 3 different teachers during the course. This was confusing for the students and didn't offer any cohesiveness. The teachers couldn't even remember the kids names. At the end of the semester, very few songs or dances were actually taught and the kids mostly played games during the hours of the class. The class isn't inexpensive, so for this, I wouldn't gone somewhere else to give my daughter a better experience and have her learn something.

Harry Potter Camp was so much fun! My girls loved making wands and creating potions...and thinking of mischievous ways to stir trouble at Hogwarts! The creative programming was wonderful for this outdoor day camp and kept my girls busy and having a great time. Their only request was that the day lasted longer! They came home and continued creating ideas to keep the magic going. Thank you!

I feel that this course is not tailored for K-1 grade. K-1 graders need more moving around, especially after a long day at school, then was made possible by the instructor.
